AbstractSARS-CoV-2 (or 2019-nCoV) is the novel Coronavirus that affects humans. It originated in China at the end of 2019 due to the consumption of animals contaminated with this pathogen. SARS-CoV-2 causes the disease known as COVID-19 (coronavirus disease – 2019), and until May 21, 2020, approximately 213 countries and territories had been affected by SARS-CoV-2. The objective of this study was to review the origin and characteristics of this virus (SARS-CoV-2), symptoms and diagnosis of COVID-19, treatment of people with COVID-19, forms of transmission of the SARS-CoV-2, and precautions in dentistry. A literature search on PubMed/Medline was performed on the May 21, 2020, using the keywords (Mesh terms) “COVID-19” or “SARS-CoV-2” or “Coronavirus” associated with “dentistry” or “dental care” or “oral medicine.” SARS-CoV-2 articles about the origin and characteristics of this virus (SARS-CoV-2), symptoms and diagnosis of COVID-19, treatment of people with COVID-19, forms of transmission of the SARS-CoV-2, and precautions in dentistry were included. The search was expanded according to necessity. Articles related to precautions in dentistry and SARS-CoV-1 or MERS-CoV were also selected, since precautions used in the dental clinic to avoid these viruses also apply to SARS-CoV-2. In addition, the references cited in the publications of articles included were also considered when appropriate. There was no limit in relation to the year of publication, and only articles written in English were included. In this study, suggestions for the safety of dental professionals were also included. Forty-seven articles and nine websites were included in this review.

Novel Coronavirus

Hintergrund und ZielCOVID-19 stellt eine substanzielle Bedrohung der Gesundheit und in der Folge auch der Lebensbedingungen der Menschen weltweit dar. Die Erkrankung entsteht infolge einer Infektion mit dem neuartigen Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. Erkenntnisse über molekulare Grundlagen, Pathophysiologie, klinische Charakteristika, Epidemiologie, aber auch Ressourcenbedarf und Outcomes (z. B. Karagiannidis et al. 2020; zur Übersicht s. Website der WHO: https://search.bvsalud.org/global-literature-on-novel-coronavirus-2019-ncov/) wachsen in beispiellos kurzem Zeitraum weltweit an, auch im Feld der Rehabilitation (vgl. Negrini et al. 2020). Die Erkenntnisse münden in Leitlinien, Policy Briefs oder konkreten Handlungsempfehlungen (vgl. Publikationen des Kompetenznetz Public Health COVID-19, www.public-health-covid19.de).

This communication presents the experience of using mobile pressure chambers in patients with the confi rmed novel coronavirus infection in hospital settings. The obtained preliminary results indicate positive antihypoxic effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) applied in the form of increased saturation. After a session of HBO, patients demonstrated an increase in the oxygen saturation of capillary blood hemoglobin at the average level of 3.71 points. Differences between SatO2 levels prior to and following HBO treatment were signifi cant in the CT2, CT3 and CT4 groups (p0.05). As expected, the effi cacy of HBO in terms of the oxygen saturation of capillary blood hemoglobin was the greatest in the patient groups showing pronounced clinical and radiological changes in the lungs.
